Through the beautifully designed Crypto Dashboard you can import key data about your favorite cryptocurrencies to your site with ease.
Coin prices update in the background of your site every 15 minutes to always show the latest data from the markets.
CryptoWP comes with a drag-and-drop Widget and the [crypto] shortcode to instantly display your imported coin prices data on your site.
To show coin data in versatile ways, use the built-in Grid, List, and Text templates (more coming soon).
Unlike most cryptocurrency plugins, CryptoWP does not take over your admin panel with ads and bloated features and does not overwork your database by storing vast amounts of unused coin data.
CryptoWP only saves relevant coin data from the coins you choose to import to you site through the Crypto Dashboard. CryptoWP gets all coin data from the CryptoCompare API.
While we actively maintain this plugin for bug fixes and new features, we cannot offer support for any downtime by the CryptoCompare API. CryptoWP will never display a watermark of any kind on your website.

Frequently asked questions
Does CryptoWP work with my theme?
CryptoWP can be installed to any WordPress site and will cleanly integrate with most themes.
How do I show coin prices on my site?
Use the crypto shortcode or built-in Widget. Learn how to use them below: CryptoWP shortcode instructions → CryptoWP widget instructions →
Which currencies are supported?
CryptoWP supports the 30+ currencies handled in the CryptoCompare API. As of version 1.0, you can only show prices in one currency at a time, with multi-currency support towards the top of the roadmap for future development.
Where does coin data come from?
CryptoWP pulls data, including coin names, prices, percentage increases, logos, and other information from the CryptoCompare API. The plugin refreshes its data every 15 minutes on page load, and you can manually refresh data from you Crypto Dashboard. You can also add your own custom coins, but coin data will only be pulled if it exists within CryptoCompare. CryptoWP is NOT affiliated with CryptoCompare in any way, it just makes use of its wonderful API.
